Where to find
Overheard
Ivory from Kerma, ebony from the south, gold from the mines. Egypt calls it tribute. We call it trade, at very good prices.
That's a hippo tusk. This is an elephant tusk. If you can't tell the difference, I'll charge you for the elephant.
The Egyptians carve our ivory into combs and gaming pieces. In Kerma we carve it into beds. For kings. Who are buried in them.
